Anyone seen crazy whale spending in real life?
I heard stories of people dropping thousands in one night on online casino games. Not even high-stakes poker, just spinning slots or buying in-game currency over and over. I used to think it was exaggerated, but then I read this article and realized it’s more common than I thought: https://theglobalhues.com/vip-players-and-whales-how-high-rollers-shape-the-industry/. Has anyone here actually witnessed whale-level spending?

I once worked in support for a gaming platform and saw some insane numbers. One guy used to message our team daily — we even had a host assigned to him. He’d spend a few hundred dollars before breakfast like it was pocket change. They treated him like royalty. Meanwhile, 90% of the player base didn’t even get automated replies. The difference in treatment was shocking.
